Chapter 21 We landed back in my town, my country. We checked out of the airport and I noticed my surroundings. The weather was chilling cold, everything was the same. It was midnight, the streets were empty and no one was around. During the entire flight, I just slept after taking some medicines . I felt a lot better when I woke up, I had no fear now. I was away from that cruel man and in the hands of someone way better. "Where are we going now?" I questioned. The airport doors swung open and we walked out in the chilling breeze. My hair flew everywhere around my face and I shivered. "Where do you want to go?" Marco asked as he pulled the hair away from my face. "Anywhere," I responded. The further we kept walking, the worse feeling I got. It was uncertain but I felt something wrong and deplorable approaching me. That is when I noticed my parents standing in the corner, waiting for me to exit out of the airport. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ FindNøvᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. They stood beside their car and gawked at me. My fingers quickly slipped away from Marco's. I couldn't let them know about him. Beside my parents, there was Bruce, he had a cold expression on his face. His hands were solidly folded across his chest. There was anger in his eyes and so in my parents as well. "Shush, my parents." I said to Marco, he glanced at them. I sighed and approached them. "So this is the man you have been with since the past couple days?" My mother questioned. She stomped forward towards me and then in a swift second she slapped me across my face. I didn't see that coming. My cheeks started to sting from the sudden pressure, I placed my hand over it and looked her. I couldn't understand what she exactly meant by that. "He is my friend," I said. Marco was still behind me, it was an awkward scene but I was glad that I told everything about my parents to Marco. Bruce didn't even bother stepping inside, for a second I thought he was the one who told my parents about my whereabouts and who I had been with. But why would he do that? What would he possibly get from that all? Numerous questions ran across my mind. "Friend? Explain this?" My mother asked, she grabbed my face and placed her fingers on my hickeys. My eyes widened with horror then, I forgot to hide them. I didn't know what else to say. "You are grounded," My father stepped inside the conversation, he grabbed my phone and threw it on the concrete ground. "No," I cried as it broke into a million pieces. This was my second phone that Bruce had given me earlier and my parents even broke that. What am I supposed to possibly do? My father just grounded me and my mother just slapped the s**t out of me. "I'm disgusted in you, Wendy, I didn't knew that I had such a w***e of a daughter." My mother continued. Her words were bitter but they weren't the truth. I wasn't a w***e, I wasn't sleeping with countless men. Tears started to collect underneath my eyes as she continued. She kept on taunting me about my actions and I didn't like that. "And you, stay the f**k away from my daughter." My father went to Marco and raised a finger at his face. Not even a single muscle in his face flinched with my father had said. That is when I figured out that Marco didn't have anger issues, he was a very calm man. "And if I don't?" He whispered. My mother grasped my hand and pulled me towards the car where Bruce was standing, I looked at him with disgust. How could he do this all to me? The next moment shocked me, my father slapped Marco. It was loud but weak. "Dad, no." I screamed, I started to run towards him but Bruce pulled me back. Marco didn't even flinch from the slap, he just looked down. His fingers crawled back to his shirt and I knew what exactly he was going to do. "Please, don't." I whispered, he looked at me with surprise, I shook my head as tears flowed down my cheeks. I kept on mummering don't to Marco. He nodded and left the grounds. A sigh of relief slipped passed my lips once he was gone. If I hadn't stopped him, he would have pulled out a gun to my dad and I didn't want that to happen ever. "Leave me, you f*****g bitch." I screamed as I moved my hands away from Bruce. My mother pushed me inside the car and sat in the front with my father, Bruce sat beside me. I just sat in the corner and looked out of the window. At that moment, I felt soulless and disappointed. My best friend betrayed me. The conversation again started, I didn't even glance back at Bruce. He was a betrayer and someone I could no longer trust. He ripped away my minute of happiness. "If I had known who she was hanging out with, I swear I wouldn't let her even step out of the house." My mother said. I rolled my eyes and put my head deeper inside my legs. Like you are a good person. "You should have kept an eye on her, we don't even know how many guys she had been physical with." My father ordered to my mother. I closed my eyes and hands, my fingers clawed the back seat of the car as I just rocked back and forth. My eyes were itching from the tears and I could feel my blood boil. "Well, now what done is done. I'll take her for a test tomorrow morning to make sure she doesn't has STD's or if she pregnant." This line just made me more pissed. "I am not going anywhere and I didn't have s*x with anyone, I am not going to prove you anything." I screamed as the car stopped in front of my house. "You have to unfortunately or you know we have our ways, we can make up anything if you don't go with us to the doctor and clear your exam out. And if you have something then that man will be in jail." My father said. "I don't care what ways you have, you cannot test me unless I give my authority to you. I am 19 and I'm able to do anything on my own." I laughed back at them. They couldn't even keep me locked up in their house anymore because I was legal. "Well, Wendy, if you do not obey us. We will create scenarios where you are mentally ill and you'll need someone to take care of you. The court will give us the permission to keep you tied with us for as long as we want. And for that man, you know how easily we can put a r**e case on him. So it is better if you listen to us and follow our rules." My mother explained. "He didn't r**e me," I screamed. She was wrong, absolutely wrong. Whatever I had with Marco was beautiful and she was trying to take that away from me. "I am a nurse, I can prove to the world how he r***d you. Oh look, he slapped you as well." She turned around and touched my cheeks. The sore bump where she slapped me a couple minutes ago. "You did that!" I exclaimed. "But no one saw it. Now, let's get a few things clear." My mother said as she went inside the house with my father and Bruce followed behind me. I still couldn't believe that he was the one behind this all. The audacity he had to even look at me after what rubbish he spilled. My parents sat down on the couch and Bella rushed and gave me a hug. "You are back! Yay!" She screamed. I picked her up and hugged her tightly. I missed her a lot. "Bella, go in your room. We have some matters to discuss with Wendy," My father ordered. She looked at me sadly, she didn't wanted to leave but she had to. She wasn't big enough to hear what bullshit my parents were going to say. "Go," I whispered in her ear and she left. "First thing, you are never seeing that man again. You are not going to go out at all, no work, nothing unless we say so. You can talk with Bruce but inside the house only, and you can also talk to Bella and Alex and us. Apart from us, no one else. You are going to go for the exam tomorrow morning, if everything is fine then that's great but if you turn out pregnant or having STD's then every guy you have slept with will be in trouble. That's all, also, you won't get a phone. You have anything to say, call from the landline." My father ordered. I rolled my eyes and rushed back to my room. I dropped down on the bed and noticed the suitcases around it. How come where they here before me? Unless, of course, Bruce knew about it all. I looked up at the wall to see nothing except for boredom. My life was locked now but I wasn't going to keep it like that way. Bruce stepped inside the room. "Get the f**k out of here," I screamed and pushed him back out but he came inside and locked the doors. "I did it for your safety," he whispered. "No, Bruce, I don't give a s**t about my safety. I was happy in his arms but you ruined it all for me. Thank you very much." I gritted my teeth together and replied to him angrily. "He is a dangerous man, Wendy, I told you to stay away from him but you didn't." He said. I grabbed a vase beside the table and dropped it down on the floor, the vase was made out of concrete so it broke into many countless pieces. "I don't give a f**k if he dangerous. I like him and I want him and I don't care whether I have to bathe in someone's blood to get him. Even if he killed a billion people in front of me, I would applaud him-no actually-I would join him and murder a billion more. Because I f*****g like him, don't you understand that. I have never liked anyone before, I have never been with anyone else and he is special to me. You know what, I am going to have s*x with him and I'm going to get pregnant and all this s**t you and my parents have right, it's going to be true. Just wait and watch what I do."
